THE BURDENS

by Matt Schatz

Directed by Brendan Ragan

October 21 – November 27, 2022

 

Siblings Mordy and Jane have a problem. Their dreadful, centenarian grandfather is an emotional and financial tax on the family, and he just won’t die. Scheming almost entirely via sarcastic and misspelled text messages, the siblings hatch an outrageous plan to relieve their family of their grandfather’s burden. Zany, twisted and inventive, this dark comedy reminds us it’s much easier to write what we could never say face to face.  Tickets and Information >>

 

BIRDS OF NORTH AMERICA

by Anna Ouyang Moench

Directed by Summer Wallace

January 6 – February 12, 2023

As birders, John and his daughter Caitlyn adore spending tender autumn days attempting to catch glimpses of elusive birds. But as seasons, the climate, and global politics change, the two find their connection as rare as a red-headed Woodpecker. In a lyrical and endearing family portrait, Birds of North America unfolds in delicate, detailed layers like the scattered leaves of each passing year. Tickets and Information >>
